Capoeira Takedown Seminar

People become interested in capoeira for several reasons: its acrobatics, fitness, agility, music, culture, history and etc. At its heart, however, capoeira is a martial art with self-defense as its core focus. Throughout its history, capoeira has provided a powerful and necessary advantage to those confronted by physical violence and oppression. The self-defense in capoeira remains important to the art form today. KSA Martial Arts and Grupo Balança Capoeira will host a seminar to demonstrate capoeira’s take on an important martial arts/self-defense topic: takedowns. This seminar will be taught by Professor of Grupo Balança Capoeira Nashville Eme Eme Michael Irvin. He has been practicing capoeira for the past 15 years under Mestre Gildo Valu at Salvador, Bahia and teaching capoeira for the past 5 years. Don't miss out on this opportunity! Since our regular classes are on wooden floors, training take-downs has not been possible due to risk of injuries due to impact. However, we will have padded floors for this workshop so this is an exciting opportunity to learn take-downs. This is not limited only to capoeiristas. It is applicable to anyone with martial art background who would like to learn take-downs. Bring your friends! The Cost is $20 Dollars Duration: 1.5 to 2 hours
